+\section{Built-in module \sectcode{macconsole}}
+\bimodindex{macconsole}
+
+This module is available on the Macintosh, provided Python has been
+built using the Think C compiler. It provides an interface to the
+Think console package, with which basic text windows can be created.
+
+\begin{datadesc}{options}
+An object allowing you to set various options when creating windows,
+see below.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{datadesc}{C_ECHO}
+\dataline{C_NOECHO}
+\dataline{C_CBREAK}
+\dataline{C_RAW}
+Options for the \code{setmode} method. \var{C_ECHO} and \var{C_CBREAK}
+enable character echo, the other two disable it, \var{C_ECHO} and
+\var{C_NOECHO} enable line-oriented input (erase/kill processing,
+etc).
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{copen}{}
+Open a new console window. Returns a console window object.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{fopen}{fp}
+Return the console window object corresponding with the given file
+object. \var{Fp} should be one of \var{sys.stdin}, \var{sys.stdout} or
+\var{sys.stderr}.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\subsection{macconsole options object}
+These options are examined when a window is created:
+
+\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(macconsole option)}
+\begin{datadesc}{top}
+\dataline{left}
+The origin of the window.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{datadesc}{nrows}
+\dataline{ncols}
+The size of the window.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{datadesc}{txFont}
+\dataline{txSize}
+\dataline{txStyle}
+The font, fontsize and fontstyle to be used in the window.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{datadesc}{title}

+the window.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\subsection{console window object}
+
+\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(console window method)}
+
+\begin{datadesc}{file}
+The file object corresponding to this console window. If the file is
+buffered, you should call \code{file.flush()} between \code{write()}
+and \code{read()} calls.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{setmode}{mode}
+Set the input mode of the console to \var{C_ECHO}, etc.

+\section{Built-in module \sectcode{macfs}}
+\bimodindex{macfs}
+
+This module provides access to macintosh FSSpec handling, the Alias
+Manager, finder aliases and the Standard File package.
+
+Whenever a function or method expects a \var{file} argument, this
+argument can be one of three things: (1) a full or partial macintosh
+pathname, (2) an FSSpec object or (3) a 3-tuple \code{(wdRefNum,
+parID, name)} as described in Inside Mac VI. A description of aliases
+and the standard file package can also be found there.
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{FSSpec}{file}
+Create an FSSpec object for the specified file.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{RawFSSpec}{data}
+Create an FSSpec object given the raw data for the C structure for the
+FSSpec.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{RawAlias}{data}
+Create an Alias object given the raw data for the alias.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{ResolveAliasFile}{file}
+Resolve an alias file. Returns a 3-tuple \code{(fsspec, isfolder,
+aliased)} where \var{fsspec} is the resulting FSSpec object,
+\var{isfolder} is true if \var{fsspec} points to a folder and
+\var{aliased} is true if the file was an alias in the first place
+(otherwise the FSSpec object for the file itself is returned).
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{StandardGetFile}{\optional{type\, ...}}
+Present the user with a standard ``open onput file''
+dialog. Optionally, you can pass up to four 4-char file types to limit
+the files the user can choose from. The function returns an FSSpec
+object and a flag indicating that the user completed the dialog
+without cancelling.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{StandardPutFile}{prompt\, \optional{default}}
+Present the user with a standard ``open output file''
+dialog. \var{prompt} is the prompt string, and the optional
+\var{default} argument initialized the output file name. The function
+returns an FSSpec object and a flag indicating that the user completed
+the dialog without cancelling.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{GetDirectory}{}
+Present the user with a non-standard ``select a directory''
+dialog. Returns an FSSpec object and a success-indicator.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\subsection{FSSpec objects}
+
+\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(FSSpec object method)}
+\begin{datadesc}{data}
+The raw data from the FSSpec object, suitable for passing
+to other applications, for instance.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{as_pathname}{}
+Return the full pathname of the file described by the FSSpec object.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{as_tuple}{}
+Return the \code{(wdRefNum, parID, name)} tuple of the file described
+by the FSSpec object.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{NewAlias}{\optional{file}}
+Create an Alias object pointing to the file described by this
+FSSpec. If the optional \code{file} parameter is present the alias
+will be relative to that file, otherwise it will be absolute.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{NewAliasMinimal}{}
+Create a minimal alias pointing to this file.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{GetCreatorType}{}
+Return the 4-char creator and type of the file.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{SetCreatorType}{creator\, type}
+Set the 4-char creator and type of the file.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\subsection{alias objects}
+
+\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(alias object method)}
+\begin{datadesc}{data}
+The raw data for the Alias record, suitable for storing in a resource
+or transmitting to other programs.
+\end{datadesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{Resolve}{\optional{file}}
+Resolve the alias. If the alias was created as a relative alias you
+should pass the file relative to which it is. Returns the FSSpec for
+the file pointed to and a flag indicating whether the alias object
+itself was modified during the search process. 
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{GetInfo}{num}
+An interface to the C routine \code{GetAliasInfo()}.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{Update}{file\, \optional{file2}}
+Update the alias to point to the \var{file} given. If \var{file2} is
+present a relative alias will be created.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+Note that is currently not possible to directly manipulate a resource
+as an alias object. Hence, after calling \var{Update} or after
+\var{Resolve} indicates that the alias has changed the python program
+is responsible for getting the \var{data} from the alias object and
+modifying the resource.

+\section{Built-in module \sectcode{macspeech}}
+\bimodindex{macspeech}
+
+This module provides an interface to the Macintosh Speech Manager,
+allowing you to let the macintosh utter phrases. You need a version of
+the speech manager extension (version 1 and 2 have been tested) in
+your \code{Extensions} folder for this to work. The module does not
+provide full access to all features of the Speech Manager yet.
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{Available}{}
+Test availability of the Speech Manager extension (and, on the
+PowerPC, the Speech Manager shared library). Returns 0 or 1. 
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{Version}{}
+Return the (integer) version of the Speech Manager.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{SpeakString}{str}
+Utter the string \var{str} using the default voice,
+asynchronously. This aborts any speech that may still be active from
+prior \code{SpeakString} invocations.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{Busy}{}
+Return the number of speech channels busy, system-wide.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{CountVoices}{}
+Return the number of different voices available.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{GetIndVoice}{num}
+Return a voice object for voice number \var{num}.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\subsection{voice objects}
+Voice objects contain the description of a voice. It is currently not
+yet possible to access the parameters of a voice.
+
+\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(voice object method)}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{GetGender}{}
+Return the gender of the voice: 0 for male, 1 for female and -1 for neuter.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{NewChannel}{}
+Return a new speech channel object using this voice.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\subsection{speech channel objects}
+A speech channel object allows you to speak strings with slightly more
+control than \code{SpeakString()}, and allows you to use multiple
+speakers at the same time. Please note that channel pitch and rate are
+interrelated in some way, so that to make your macintosh sing you will
+have to adjust both.
+
+\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(speech channel object method)}
+\begin{funcdesc}{SpeakText}{str}
+Start uttering the given string.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{Stop}{}
+Stop babbling.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{GetPitch}{}
+Returns the current pitch of the channel, as a floating-point number.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{SetPitch}{pitch}
+Set the pitch of the channel.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{GetRate}{}
+Get the speech rate (utterances per minute) of the channel as a
+floating point number.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{SetRate}{rate}
+Set the speech rate of the channel.
+\end{funcdesc}
